Women at various stages in life have individual nutritional requirements. This category of supplements offers nourishments like Vitamin C that aid in iron absorption and can strengthen immunity.
Chasteberry extract and maritime pine bark extract may provide relief for menstrual cramps, level mood swings, and reduce bloating for an easier period. Autumn’s personalized multivitamin uses your genetic information to tailor its formula according to your metabolism and health goals.
The Honey Pot Co.
Athena Dixon is an Atlanta-based brand offering intimate washes, pads and tampons that are “gynecologist-approved.” Her inspiration came after trying every prescription and remedy available until an ancestor gave her a list of ingredients needed to create her own solution during a dream.
But in February, The Honey Pot Co received significant blowback after its commercial on Target featuring Dixon discussing her entrepreneurial journey and emphasizing that her products are Black women-owned without harsh chemicals.
Dixon insists she does not plan on changing her business strategy or selling the company, though she acknowledged her failure in informing customers earlier about a formula change owing to supply chain issues and scaling up. As for not communicating early enough about it, she says this decision was driven by supply chain concerns as well as scaling needs; not wanting anyone feeling uncomfortable over it, this decision was made without telling customers first.
Movita
Movita Organics’ founder Tonya believes in self-care starting with quality vitamins at an accessible price point. Her personal health journey and professional work as an advocate for women shaped her vision of Movita Organics as an accessible brand offering healthy living to all.
Movita supplements are organic and free from synthetic additives; its unique fermentation process produces high bioactivity nutrient-rich supplements with higher nutrient density than conventional vitamins. Their products have been specially tailored for women to address breast and reproductive health, bone density, heart health, digestion, energy/metabolism metabolism immunity as well as stress reduction.
Each multivitamin from Vivolife is composed of whole food ingredients such as turmeric, strawberries, kale sprouts and blackberries and utilizes a proprietary prebiotic and probiotic culturing process that binds nutrients to glycoproteins for easy stomach-settling on an empty stomach and increased absorption rates by your body. Furthermore, their products are certified organic, gluten-free, dairy-free, egg-free and allergy-friendly for shellfish and nuts – providing your body with maximum absorption rates!
Ritual
Ritual produces its multivitamins using a unique beadlet-in-oil design that combines oily and dry ingredients, making them easier for the body to absorb. They use delayed-release capsules with minty flavors for ease of consumption, third-party tested for heavy metals, impurities, major allergens and microbes before going through clinical testing to ensure effectiveness at dosages listed on labels.
The brand’s Made Traceable program gives insight into every ingredient it uses and how and where they were sourced, while formulas are tailored to different sexes and life stages using scientific approaches such as optimal forms (folate vs folic acid) of nutrients and interactions between essential nutrient interactions outlined by them, according to company representatives.
However, some users found the products too costly. Monika Patel tried Ritual during her second pregnancy before switching to Nature Made due to cost. Nature Made offers a 30-day return policy and customer service is always available to answer questions or address issues that arise.
Hers Start
Hers Start is a women-centric telehealth service, providing one-stop solutions for all your healthcare needs. Their comprehensive selection includes skin and hair care products, sexual wellness options and mental wellbeing support – as well as prescription management and supplements. Our testers found their service positive overall although some products were costly while subscription terms weren’t always clear.
Hers’ supplement line features a variety of gummies, powders and drops designed to address common women’s health concerns. Hers Start, for instance, is an everyday probiotic designed to promote gut health while simultaneously strengthening immunity. Other women’s wellness supplements available from Hers include Sleep Tight, Immunity Pro and Urinary Tract Health D-Mannose for convenient wellness management. These products make an excellent way for anyone who wishes to take control of their own wellbeing in an easy and effective manner.
